Historical Hockey Memorabilia Auction Winter 2020
This lot is closed for bidding. Bidding ended on 2/26/2020
Replacing the NHL's all-star festivities for the 1978–79 NHL season, the 1979 Challenge Cup featured the Soviet Union national ice hockey team taking on a squad of NHL All-Stars in three contests at Madison Square Garden, on February 8th, 10th, and 11th. This 1979 Challenge Cup NHL All-Stars jersey was worn by HOF superstar Guy Lapointe. With a large Cosby label with “50” sizing tightly affixed to the inner collar, the vintage durene feature’s an embroidered NHL shield team crest, with the collar widened. Matching shield crests also reside over each shoulder, with “3” in orange-over-black layered tackle twill sleeve and verso numbers (Denis Potvin wore the #5 sweater). “Lapointe” appears affixed directly over the upper reverse in individual black twill letters with embroidered orange trim.
Worn for a short period, the jersey remains in gorgeous condition, with a few random small marks visible along with a stick mark over the lower front.
